Explanation of the athar of 'Umar (may Allah be pleased with him): (Praise is slaughter)

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The Shaykh : Then he narrated with his authentic chain of narration from Zayd ibn Aslam from his father Aslam, who was Aslam the client of 'Umar (may Allah be pleased with him), who said: I heard 'Umar say:
Praise is slaughter المدح ذِبح
. And what 'Umar said has in fact been established as marfu' (traced to the Prophet) to the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him). It was reported in "Sahih Muslim" from him (peace and blessings be upon him) that he said:
Praise is slaughter, praise is slaughter, praise is slaughter المدح هو الذبح ، المدح هو الذبح ، المدح هو الذبح
He repeated it three times, then he (peace be upon him) said:
If one of you must praise his brother, let him say: I think he is such and such, and Allah is his accountant, and I do not declare anyone pure before Allah إن كان أحدكم لا بد مادحًا أخاه فليقل : إنِّي أحسبه كذا وكذا والله حسيبه ، ولا أزكِّي على الله أحدًا
.
